noob stupid question on exhuast.. .

I just had flowmaster exhuast install not too long ago with dual tips (similar to corvetttes 2.25" orval) then my friend (is the manager at a auto shop/ muffler) said to me that i should put a 2.5" tube tip or 3" tube tip to make it louder. Is that really true??? I mean my flowmaster is already louder. . but i did like the intresting idea of it but i rather check with you guys. ANy ideas???

i was refering to long tube headers.... if you have stock ones on your car switch them out to,..... long tube headers will give u more rumble or u can do another type of header... itll give you more power and don't forget to do a off road y pipe... hope that helps u out
